Privacy Policy
Last updated: 12 October 2026
Irebe FM (“we”, “us” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains how information may be collected and used when you visit our website, listen to our content, or use listener features such as song requests, comments, contests and newsletter subscriptions.
In brief: We use information you choose to send us to respond to you and operate our services. We may also use limited technical or aggregated usage information to maintain and improve the website.
1. Information you provide
Depending on the feature you use, you may provide information such as your name, email address, phone number, town, song request, dedication, message, comment, contest entry or newsletter preference. Please do not include sensitive personal information in public comments or listener messages.
2. Information collected when you visit
Basic technical information may be processed to deliver pages, protect the site from abuse, remember preferences and understand general site usage. Website statistics may include page views, popular stories, podcast plays and interactions with adverts. The site is designed to use anonymous or aggregated statistics where possible; server logs or security systems may still process technical data needed to operate and protect the service.
3. How we use information
- To respond to listener requests, dedications, comments and enquiries.
- To administer contests, events and newsletter subscriptions.
- To publish or moderate user-submitted content where appropriate.
- To operate, secure, troubleshoot and improve the website and listening services.
- To measure general audience engagement and advertising performance.
4. Comments, requests and public content
Content you submit may be reviewed by our team. Comments may appear publicly after moderation. If you send a dedication or request to be read on air, we may use the message or the name you provide as part of the broadcast or related station content. Do not submit information you do not want shared in that context.
5. Cookies, local storage and offline features
The website may use browser storage to remember settings such as language or display theme, support offline reading, and help protect or operate site features. You can manage or clear stored data through your browser settings. Clearing it may affect saved preferences or offline access.
6. Sharing and third-party services
We do not sell your personal information. Information may be handled by service providers that help us host, secure or operate the website, or where disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect people and the service. Links to social networks, audio players or other third-party websites are governed by those providers’ own privacy policies; we do not control their practices.
7. Retention and security
We keep submitted information for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose it was collected, station administration, legal obligations or dispute handling. We use reasonable safeguards, but no website or electronic transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.
8. Your choices and requests
You may choose not to submit optional information. You can unsubscribe from newsletters using the unsubscribe option where provided. You may contact the station to ask about access to, correction of, or deletion of information you have submitted, subject to applicable law and legitimate operational needs.
9. Children’s privacy
Our website is intended for a general audience. Children should not submit personal information without appropriate guidance from a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has provided personal information inappropriately, contact us so we can review the matter.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as our services or legal requirements change. The latest version will be published on this page with its updated date.
11. Contact us
For privacy questions or requests, use the contact details on our Irebe FM website and identify your message as a privacy enquiry.
This page provides general privacy information and is not legal advice. The station should review it and adapt it to its actual data practices and applicable laws before relying on it as a formal compliance document.
